Black screen from a "SHELLENV keeps stopping" error

My Meta Quest 2 has been performing flawlessly since I bought it in February of this year, but yesterday I made the mistake of downloading and trying to install Meta's Paradiso environment as a home screen and began seeing only this error message upon starting the headset: "SHELLENV keeps stopping".  Now all I get is a message asking if I want to exit the app or cancel and I'm hoping someone has experienced the same crippling result and can offer a suggestion on how to repair the damage caused by one of Meta's own apps!

It's saying shellnv keeps stopping

Hello there! To fix this issue you'll need to reset your headset! There are two ways to do this. One: If your headset is connected to the meta app you can reset it through there. And two: if not, you can hold the power button with the volume button to open a factory reset screen. Hope this helps! 

Hey there @bbcnicenjiucy77 we were wondering if the steps from your fellow peer @xArduinx  were attempted and if you were able to get this fixed. Either way please be sure to let us know so that we can proceed accordingly. We look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you so much for this info, @hazed100 I just experienced this issue today, and I would have lost countless hours if I followed the factory reset route. I'm so thankful that I found your post. I appreciate you!!!
